Right, I think it's time to define flare.
A Flare is not small elevator changes you make down the approach but something much larger as the word depicts.
In the actual process of landing a flare in my books is continuing back pressure ie a large movement on the column with the effect of destroying lift so that the aircraft gets to a point where sink occurs.
I would not consider a wrist jerk on landing as a flare
